Edit an Article[edit]

Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added? Dwight was recently traded to Montreal; his statistics have not been updated when it comes to his new team. I think there is a lot of missing information that can be added, there is not enough information about his personal life outside of hockey. There is nothing about his family either. Also, there is not a lot of information about his Metis heritage, it only states he is Metis.

Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference? The reference that is associated with King getting called up for his first NHL game isn’t reliable. It looks and feels like a blog. Another source with regards to Dwight’s heritage doesn’t seem reliable. It is also more like a blog then a reliable source. It also hasn’t been updated to show Dwight’s new team.

Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented? Dwight being of Metis heritage is very underrepresented, it only states that he is of that decent. It doesn’t say if he is a certain type of Metis and where he is from. It also doesn’t say any rituals or things that Dwight had to do growing up as a Metis.
